Description: Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944) was one of the most important teachers at the Bauhaus, but there has so far only been partial research into and documentation of his teaching work. The exhibition catalogue is presenting for the first time documents and materials from international archives and collections that provide a comprehensive view of Kandinsky's teaching work at the Bauhaus. It is showing notes that Kandinsky made when preparing the classes, as well as illustrative materials that he used. In addition to lecture notes and exercises done by his students, drawings and watercolours made by Kandinsky during his time at the Bauhaus are also included, accompanied by selected works by his colleagues.
